Son, you are traveling down a raod that will rape you of your childhood and manhood. I suggest you put the book down and go do some lawn work.

Why yes, I have!

Only to give me reasons to fall back on when I bash the book.

Respect, it's what I do...Then again, so is UberCream's job.

Yeah, and it was okay.

Not very well written at all, extremely clichéd and the main character was completely mary sue, but it was mildly entertaining.

I've got something to say...

Tried to read the first book, but it was too painful and boring.

I quit at about the halfway point of it, so meh.

It reads like a piece of erotic fanfic without all the spelling errors.

I have'nt read them personally, but my daughter, (she's 20), owns and has read all 4 books that have so far been released and she loves them. And from over my shoulder she is telling me they definetely get better and better. She is totally hanging out for the last 2. Apparently there is 2 more books to come.

How embarrassing.

Its terrible, but I thoroughly enjoyed it. it was crafted to appeal to girls, and so naturally it appealed to me.
Its some of the shittest writing I've ever encountered, borrows from and then violates every vampire and werewolf trope there is, makes up random nonsensical new elements for both, lacks a plot, is deeply sexist, lacking of excitement, the characters are whiney, obnoxious, stupid and not at all appealing.
The whole series ends with the most incredible anti-climax I have ever encountered and is wish fulfillment, plain and simple.

Stop now, before it destroys your mind.

Girls only.

Or gay dudes.

If each mistake being made is a new one, then progress is being made.

yes it gets much better. Give new moon a try and if still doesnt interest you leave it. It's really a love hate thing. Either you love romance or you hate it. Or you can just barely tolerate it.

I'm a sucker for romance stories, but the fans of this make me more scared of reading it than they should.

One meow for yes two meows for no. Come to the furry side.

I read it, alright.

It was the shittiest book I've ever read. Bella is a whiny Mary Sue, it's fucking annoying to read about Edward's perfect perfectness every goddamn 5 minutes, it's sexist, it lacks a plot, it's boring, it breaks the rules of its own world, the author is a stupid bitch with the mentality of a six year old, who believes she created the best love story of all time, etc.

I can go on and on on how the series sucks balls, and the fact that the fans are batshit insane doesn't help much either.

Ignorance is bliss, kids.

Eclipse was my favorite, I enjoyed it more than New Moon.

It's become "the thing" to bash them, so there's not much that can be said to those who insist that they're garbage.

If you're looking for some sort of deep, meaningful read then look elsewhere, but if you're just looking to be entertained by a good story (which may have its imperfections), but is overall enjoyable then go ahead and keep on reading. I liked them, and I think it's silly to slam books that get people reading, even if the book is a bit on the light side.

Snape kills Dumbledore.
JK. I have never read or even looked at the Twilight book or movie series because that type of film/book generates no interest in me. I hardly care for such thing as vampires and werewolves yet I love certain SiFi books. The series Dune is a far better read. I've read the entire series five times over and yet when I pick the books back up I can never put them down.

Pic related.

Has anyone read the twilight series

ARE YOU MAN ENOUGH FOR THIS?
